Chapter 2 I know better

  • He stared down at the piece of jewellery in his hand and his teeth clenched in annoyance. He then pointed to the closet door not too far from where she was and seeing it, she hurried over and hid away. There was a small opening in the closet and she was able to peep through and see what was happening.
  • He heaved a deep breath, slide the diamond into his pocket before unlocking the door and opening it wide. "I'm sorry, I wanted to meditate a little when you knocked." He said to Wura before turning his attention to the officer with the name tag Sule and nodding at him, "I'm sorry what can I do for you, officer Sule?" He politely asked.
  • "We were chasing down a thief. She stole a diamond necklace worth over a hundred thousand from the owners and she ran into this building and we have checked the other room where she but she wasn't there."
  • "We were wondering if you by any chance saw a young woman with blonde hair come here? I told them no one did they insisted on talking to you." The other officer standing beside the door asked and Jasmin couldn't see his name tag because he wasn't fully in the office.
  • "Officer Sule, Mike," he seemed to know who they were and Jasmine wasn't surprised. "I didn't, but I heard footsteps running around my door earlier and when I open the door, I only saw this on the floor." He said and pulled out the diamond necklace from his pocket. "I think she must have dropped it or something." He handed it back to officer Sule.
  • Jasmin heart clench in her chest as she watches the officer take the necklace. The effort put into today just went down the toilet. She didn't steal the diamond because she loved it, she had no other choice. Maybe she should have gone for something lower than diamonds, but she needed the money a lot of it
  • She had made plans to sell the necklace and make money for herself and her baby. She didn't want to be ungrateful but she believed there were other ways this could have gone that she would still have to keep the necklace. She had put in too much time to go back empty and it sucked and this man in an expensive black suit would never understand.
  • "Thank you, Mr Inferno," Mike the other officer said with a happy smile on his face.
  • "This is all I can do, but I hope you catch the thief soon."
  • Sule nodded, "Yeah. Thank you, this alone would make Ms Francesca happy." The men shook hands before taking their leave and Wura closed the door.
  • After a while of them being gone, Jasmin pushed the closet door open and walked back into the office. She was silent for the first few moments that passed, staring at the man who didn't even bother to look at her as he focused more on the calendar on the wall.
  • "You know, when someone saves you from going to jail, you show gratitude by saying thank you." He pointed out, walking back to his desk.
  • "I didn't ask you to help" she mumbled under her breath, but he must have heard because his head twirled around swiftly it almost startled her.
  • "You're welcome." He said regardless of her attitude. "And a thief with your attitude will not get very far." He said before taking his seat.
  • She didn't like that he called her a thief even if it was what she was, but hearing him say that created a sad feeling in her. "I'm sorry and thank you for helping me." It wasn't a genuine apology or gratitude, but that was the best he was going to get after calling her a thief.
  • "There are other ways to earn money that doesn't involve you stealing and being chased by the cops every single day you know."
  • "First off, I don't get chased by cops every day, this is the first time that's happening in my twenty-six years of being born so why would I consider your advice?"
  • "Because as energetic as thievery is, it isn't a job?" He asked rubbing over his jaw and Jasmin couldn't help noticing the Rolex on his wrist. It would cost nothing less than thirty grand. The diamond she lost was worth more than his man's Rolex, but it was a start.
  • She stepped towards him with determination the looked rich and definitely capable of getting himself another one without raising an alarm. She strolled towards his desk, her hips swaying from side to side and he remained silent and watched her intently with his adorable green eyes. She placed her hand on the desk and made small circles on the desk and watch as his gaze flicked between her finger and her face.
  • "If you would pay me, I would not mind stealing your heart away," she bit down on her finger slowly her eyes closed as she seductively sucked on it. "I could take care of your business, I'm a fast learner if you teach me." Her eyes slowly part open and she saw him staring at her closely even though his body didn't give anything away.
  • She slowly lowered herself into his legs and he didn't resist the advance she made, she brought her lips closer to his ear and whispered. "I can do more than steal, I'm quite good at pleasure, I have been told."
  • Her breath touching his neck sends shivers down his spine and his body awakens in a way it hasn't for a while and against his sound judgement, he moaned in response even though it was only her breath touching him.
  • Knowing she had him under control just like she wanted, she caressed his neck with her parted lips and the hot breath from her mouth descended and goosebumps broke out on the skin of his neck while she unbuckled his wristwatch and taking it off she slid it into her pocket. He hissed out in need and grabbed her hair and he pulled her off so he could look at her and for a moment she thought he had figured what she was trying to do, but he just stared into her eyes with his stormy ones, trying to search out things she didn't know.
  • "I can be more." She cooed, leaning back in to kiss his neck and her tongue darted out and licked him there.
  • He pulled her back so that she looked at him again and he didn't look as lost as he did before. "If you're trying to seduce me, you're doing a very terrible job."
  • "Why because you're gay?" She asked with her brow raised.
  • "Because I know better than to fuck around with a thief." He answered and she pulled away from him.
  • "No," she said, getting up from him and adjusting her clothes, "you want to fuck a thief, but you are just too boring for this one." She says before walking out of the door.
